Comic's House Arrest Extended Until Tuesday

The house arrest of comic Yaron Berlad, who is suspected of indecent acts, will be extended until Tuesday, it was decided on Friday. The decision was made at the consent of Berlad's attorney.

On Thursday it was speculated that the case against Berlad, a member of the cast of the popular Eretz Nehederet satire show, would be closed in the next few days for lack of sufficient evidence, but the police later said that the reports were not true.
